Odell Beckham Jr. admitted it felt different Wednesday because of who was not at the Giants facility in the morning. The Giants were there, but Victor Cruz was not.

“It was definitely weird just not even seeing Vic around,’’ Beckham said. “It will take some getting used to, but we’ve got to move on quickly. As hard as it is, we’ve just got to try and move on.’’

It is hard for everyone around the Giants to come to grips with Cruz going down so suddenly and the fact that the torn right patellar tendon he suffered in Sunday night’s 27-0 loss to the Eagles means Cruz’ season is over. What made the situation even more uncomfortable is that Cruz stayed behind in a Philadelphia hospital, had surgery Monday afternoon and the players and coaching staff have not had much contact with him.

“I’ve sent him a text, I’ve left him a voice mail,’’ Eli Manning said after practice. “I know sometimes when these things happen, you’re injured, you’re not looking to reach out and talk a lot. I left him a long message and told him I’d reach out to him and try to catch hold of him. I have not gotten him in person yet.’’

Cruz did spend about 30 minutes at the Giants facility Wednesday, arriving and departing on crutches, the first time anyone with the team had seen him since the injury. Cruz checked with the team medical staff but did not have much, or any, contact with his teammates, who were already on the practice field. The Giants said he was not feeling up to speaking with the media one day after surgery.

Tom Coughlin said he felt helpless on the sideline at Lincoln Financial Field, unable to console Cruz as he was carted off, but the head coach finally got the chance Tuesday to speak “at great length’’ with Cruz.

“He was in good spirits,’’ Coughlin said. “It was the latter part of the morning. I told him what great concern there was here for him, how badly we all felt, how much we’ll miss him both in the locker room and on the field and what a great Giant he’s been and a contributor and I expect the rehab will go very well and he’ll be back 100 percent in a few months’ time. No doubt we miss him and we will, but his message will be ‘Move on.’ ’’

Amid some medical opinions that Cruz, even after a long and grueling rehabilitation, will not be able to return to his full physical prowess, Coughlin said he “absolutely’’ expected Cruz back as good as new.

“If it has to do with overcoming,” Coughlin said, “he’ll overcome it.’’
